Sim Hoay Cheok – Sim Foundation Library
Crowning the Clinical Sciences Building is the rooftop Sim Hoay Cheok – Sim Foundation Library which not only boasts an impressive collection of medical journals, textbooks and unique collections such as the Medical Art Print Collection, Children’s Health Collection and Singapore (SG) Doctors, but also a panoramic view of Singapore’s city skyline.
The Medical Library is divided into four conceptual spaces:
1. Quiet Study
This is where the print collection is located. The library shelves, which you can sit on, provide a welcoming environment to browse books; while Study Pods and tables provide a conducive environment to focus on work.
2. Collaboration Space
Dual monitor desktop computers are available for use. Quick discussions can also be held in the semi-enclosed meeting spaces.
3. Flexi-Space
A multifunctional room that can be used to hold seminars, workshops, or events. During exam periods, it is transformed into a study hall.
4. Café
An area where you can unwind or hold informal meetings over a drink or meal.
Between the Flexi-Space and Café area is an outdoor terrace that is accessible to anyone looking for a space with fresh air, some greenery and a scenic view of Singapore’s Central Business District.
